ParticipantHow long of a period are you looking at?
Here is a comparison of SPY (the S&P 500) and EEM (the Emerging Markets index) over the last five years:
I would say that the difference is fairly dramatic.
Obviously, past performance is no indicator future results, and they both may go down. But historically, they are pretty different.

ParticipantDepends on where you moved it. If China, they’re taking a hit because of the oil debacle and because of comments from their renegade officials.

ParticipantI think most stock markets now are very interdependent and they tend to go up and down togetther. However, like you I also move most of my money to Asian and European mutual funds.
However, I have a question on owning foreign mutual funds. Let say I own a mutual fund with 100% Japanese stocks and the fund remains unchanged for the day however the yen appreciates 5% agaist the dollars on that day. Does it mean that I made 5% on that day?
Thanks,
